Ipswich Town and Aston Villa played out a largely dismal 0-0 draw at Portman Road in a game that only threatened to burst into life in the final few dramatic minutes.
With only one shot on target in 90 minutes, Ipswich almost grabbed a dramatic win with an amazing five great chances in an enthralling end to the match.
Freddie Sears had two decent free-kicks go close before hitting the post while Leon Best and Cole Skuse were denied by goal-line clearances.
In truth, the closing stages - which included eight minutes of injury time - overshadowed a turgid encounter.
